New name included in redesigned diploma
Starting with the May 2008 graduating class, Missouri S&T graduates will have their choice of diplomas -- the classic University of Missouri diploma or a redesigned version that includes the new name.
Here's the pre-name change version of the diploma:
And here's the redesigned diploma, which will be available starting in May (and also to alumni who wish to order the new version):
From the official news release:
The redesigned diplomas, approved recently by the University of Missouri administration, replace the former wording “Done at the University in the City of Rolla, State of Missouri,” with “Done at Missouri University of Science and Technology in the City of Rolla, State of Missouri.” The university’s full name is in bold type set in a larger font size – the same size as the graduating student’s name – to draw attention to the new name.All May 2008 Missouri S&T graduates will receive the new diploma in the mail, along with a coupon to order the previous University of Missouri diploma. The previous diploma will be available to graduating students at no charge over the next six years (through May 2013).
It's important to note that there never was a UMR diploma. As the images above depict, the diploma was always a "University of Missouri" diploma.
Alumni: Go here to order your new diploma.
